These guides help you describe your cat to the cattery. ## What every cat gets The cattery has individual four-level towers, which the kennel calls condos. Each cat has its own litter box and cozy blanket, and there is a cat tree and cat houses for play and hiding. The kennel and cattery are temperature controlled, and medications are given at no extra charge. Cats from one home can share a condo; the second cat is $30 a night. See [cat boarding](https://happypawskennels.com/cat-boarding/) for the full picture. ## Pick a breed Guides are written for long-haired breeds like the [Maine Coon](https://happypawskennels.com/breeds/cats/maine-coon/), [Ragdoll](https://happypawskennels.com/breeds/cats/ragdoll/) and [Persian](https://happypawskennels.com/breeds/cats/persian/), short-haired breeds like the [Siamese](https://happypawskennels.com/breeds/cats/siamese/), [Bengal](https://happypawskennels.com/breeds/cats/bengal/) and [British Shorthair](https://happypawskennels.com/breeds/cats/british-shorthair/), and for the mixed cats most households have, the [Domestic Shorthair](https://happypawskennels.com/breeds/cats/domestic-shorthair/) and [Domestic Longhair](https://happypawskennels.com/breeds/cats/domestic-longhair/). ## Vaccines and booking Cats need current rabies and FVRCP records on file and must be at least 16 weeks old before the first day.
